Former Boeing employee who raised concerns about 737 Max production to testify at hearing.
The aircraft has been grounded since March after two fatal crashes in five months killed 346 people. Federal officials say the FAA is not expected to authorize the plane to fly until January at the earliest, citing a number of steps yet to be completed.
Boeing spokesman Gordon Johndroe said Pierson described "concerns raised with Boeing management about conditions on the 737 production line in 2018." He noted that "in mid-2018 he was able to raise his concerns directly with the head of the 737 program, who subsequently communicated with Mr. Pierson, including in an in-person meeting."
Boeing senior leadership, Johndroe added, "was aware of production challenges with the 737 line in 2018, and devoted significant attention and resources to addressing those issues and maintaining production quality."
